passed people walking on the wrong side of the road that i bad enough in daylight but at night it is or might be a short cut to eternity if a person who usually drives a car has to walk on the highway you can be almost certain he wont be found walking on the wrong side of the road and of course we have children on bicycles or foot they are liable to be place obyiiiuly through lack training safety education should begin with the parents but if the parents dont observe the rules of the rood what can one expect from the children jn an accident the fault doesnt always lie with the motor ist another thing for pedestrian- to remember particularly the old er folk who are usually dressed in dark clothing that bright sun can be as blinding to the motorist as glaring headlights under such conditions pedestrians should be particularly cautious in crossing streets or highways well there yuu have lines the fire was under control in a short time and a 15 minute inspec tion was made from

hotter but i certainly had more flavor than margarine so there we have an other angle ui the butter problem quite apart from what it costs incidentally farm economists claim that butter scljlng at 88c
